Notes: sn-glycero-3-Phosphocholine-d9 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (Item No. 20736) by GC- or LC-MS. sn-glycero-3-Phosphocholine is a nootropic phospholipid, a precursor to choline biosynthesis, and an intermediate in the metabolism of phosphatidylcholine.{32447} In vivo, sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine is converted to phosphorylcholine, a metabolically active form of choline that increases acetylcholine synthesis and release in rat hippocampus. It prevents scopolamine-induced amnesia in a passive avoidance test in rats and exerts neuroprotective effects in models of altered cholinergic neurotransmission and models of brain vascular injury.{32447,45044}
